Lmfao when I was a kid prob 5-7 my dad brought me to a Humboldt state university game. I was having a blast running around under the bleachers eating hotdogs and cotton candy or something no idea what was going on with game but it was a good one I guess stands were pretty crazy. Well they shouted after a score or turn over H. S. U. H. S. U.
Lmfao I was getting into it and I started shouting with everyone super enthusiastic. Annnggell food! annnggle food!
So I was yelling angle food cake lmfao OMG I say it now and am dying inside. My dad just starts dying laughing and keeps shouting and egging me on. On the way home we got hot chocolate and donuts like we used to always do at coffee call later in my life and he told me what they were really saying lol he said No one noticed but I'm sure someone was like... Is that kid screaming angle food cake when we scored????
Frickin hilarious

The movie Tombstone
When Doc Holliday says "I'm your huckleberry."
That's not what he is saying.
He is saying, "I'm you huckle bearer."
A huckle bearer is the person carrying a coffin, essentially a pallbearer.
He was saying that I'm going to be the one carrying your dead arse to the grave.

Not according to Val or any official script. The best etymology is below. Some believe that Twain may have named Huckleberry Finn from the idiom.
quote:
Some folks think that Holliday may have said something else in real life. He might’ve said, “I’m your huckle bearer.” In the South, a huckle was a casket handle. A huckle bearer would be the person carrying a coffin, essentially a pallbearer. According to this theory, what Holliday should have said in the film is, “I’m your huckle bearer.” The theory goes that Val Kilmer accidentally said huckleberry instead, and the line stuck. There are a couple of problems with that explanation. First, no official copy of the script has ever been seen with the words “huckle bearer” used. Second, Val Kilmer maintains that the line written in the script was huckleberry, and Kilmer even titled his autobiography I’m Your Huckleberry.
quote:
So what’s the truth about Holliday’s famous catch-phrase? Here’s our best explanation for the meaning of the term. Another Southern slang usage of huckleberry was “the right person for the job.” In both instances of Holliday using the phrase in the film, Johnny Ringo is hoping to spark violence. What Holliday is saying to Johnny Ringo is that if he’s looking for trouble, Holliday’s the guy to give it to him.

I think we just had really crappy stereos.
There was a brief period, post-cassettes, where people listed to CDs and we could all understand the lyrics. The advent of MP3s and Bluetooth will doom us once more to hearing "hold me close and tie me down, sir" and "Newwwwww Orleans, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh."
